Main Features:
- Create and restore a disk image without having to restart the computer (in most cases).
- Optionally select only those sectors that contain useful information. The resulting disk image is smaller and it takes less time to create.
- Store a disk image in a local file, on a network drive or burn directly on CD/DVD/Blue-ray Disc.
- Create an exact (sector-by-sector) image for data recovery scenarios or for backing up partitions with unknown file systems.
- Make a disk image of any hard disk (IDE, SCSI, USB, FireWire), Solid State Disk (SSD), USB Flash Drive or Floppy diskette.
- Create an ISO image from CD/DVD/Blue-ray disc and burn them back.
- Backup data from basic disks or dynamic disks.
- Configure image compression to make a balance between archive size and recording speed.
- Create an image of several disk partitions at the same time and store them in one archive.
- Automate image creation by setting up several disk images at once.
- Restore selected disk, partition or individual files from the archive.
- Run Active@ Disk Image from Active@Boot Disk to perform all disk image operations no matter what installed operating system is present.
- Setup an unattended imaging of a computer using scheduling.
- Simple procedures using easy-to-follow wizards.
- Record operations logs. There are three log formats supported: XML logs (used internally by software), plain text log (placed along with an image) and Windows Event log.
- Split a disk image into several files to make file handling easier.
- Use password protection for security.
- Exclude page files and hibernate file to improve recording speed and reduce backup file size.
- Easily transfer system and program files to several workstations with disk or partition cloning. Unicode support (file names and descriptions in Asian languages are supported).
- Backup disks partitioned with MBR, GPT or Mac OS X Boot Camp style GPT
- Create incremental and differential backups to save storage space
